Minitrekker : how to tie a tripod?

[Astin]

Hi, I bought the Lowepro Minitrekker 3 months ago from 2nd hand market. I am quite happy with it, but I cannot figure out how to tie the tripod to the bag. Can anyone show/explain to me how this is done? I also went to CP/AP and look see look see but they do not have a demo unit with a tripod attached.

HI, I dunno if the minitrekker is the minitrekker we talk about...

okie, the trekker should have 2 clips on elastic bands/ twine and a pocket (velco) at the bottom

1) Open the pocket and pull at the velco, an extension pocket should appear (that's where you insert the 2 legs of your tripod)

2) the middle clip is to secure the mid-section of your tripod onto the bag. Remember to pull the elastic bands till tight

3) the top most clip is for the trip head area, do the same as of the middle clip

wala!



I believe this is the minitrekker you are toking about right?

Thanks, this is the same Minitrekker I was asking. I will try your instructions when I get home tonight. I actually tried many different methods on my own, but the tripod always dropped off when I shaked or run. I searched the web but could not find a picture or a sketch showing what is the "proper" method.
